Storm Of The Sea Devils Audio Drama
The Sea Devils make a big splash in this story that pits them against Tom Baker’s Fourth Doctor, companion Harry Sullivan (played here by Christopher Naylor) and UNIT operative Naomi Cross (Eleanor Crooks). The four-part lead story is set in Calcutta where there have been sightings of creatures in the swamps…
“It’s a terribly good story,” says Tom. “The actors were very bravely playing Sea Devils, finding their voices, and whispering and shouting. It’s been wonderful fun.”
Also included is two-part Worlds Beyond which takes the Doctor, Harry and Naomi to a planet where the Doctor ends up playing chess with Alan Turing… He’s had a lot of practice with K9, so that should all go well.

River of Death Audio Reading
A visit to the Grand Canyon begins with disaster for the Sixth Doctor and Peri, when the TARDIS plunges into a ravine. What a pickle! Stranded, they must descend to the valley on foot and then track the course of the Colorado river. Their perilous journey is fraught with danger, even before they encounter a band of 19th century explorers led by Major John Wesley Powell. As food supplies dwindle, so do the group’s options. This is a journey from which some of them will never return.
Author John Peel – famous for novelising Dalek stories in the late eighties and early nineties and kicking off Virgin’s New Adventures range – delivers a stirring historical tale of human endeavour and American pioneers. It’s read by Nicola Bryant who played Peri on TV.
